The Ordinary
A single-ingredient oil that seals in moisture without clogging pores.
Squalane mimics a lipid the skin already makes, absorbs without residue, and has an unusually low tendency to clog. One ingredient, nothing to react to, and a few drops last a long time.
How to use it: Last before sunscreen — oils seal, they don't absorb through.
Compared across every retailer we track, with per-unit pricing so different sizes are judged fairly.
Save $1.75 by buying from Walmart rather than the most expensive stockist.
